Is there anyway to link Apache's WebDAV up to NetInfo, it is really anoying to edit the Apache config file every time I want to add a new share, and then create a new user in WebDAV from the terminal etc. Is there a better way ? I want my users to have access to their own folder through WebDAV without me having to update http.conf all the time and make new users in WebDAV.

If you don't mind using regular Basic authentication, you can download mod_auth_apple, which Apple released as open source.

For Digest authentication, OS X Server includes an Apache module to do this (mod_auth_digest_apple), but Apple has declined to release the source to the module.

I've looked through mod_auth_digest and mod_auth_apple, but it's not obvious to a novice Apache coder like me how to mash them together. Perhaps someone smarter could do this?

I have Mac OS X server on my work, is it legal to take the module from there and give it to you, so you can modufy it etc. ? WebDAV would really then be a killer, and kill ftp, atleast here
